The Voice of a Lady

Mother Nature speaks to us;
Listen to her whisper in the wind.
She dances in the fallen leaves;
and coerces the tree limbs to bend.

She shines in everything you see;
her touch is everywhere.
She sculpts canyons from rivers
and breathes wind through the air.

She births a new life every second
and absorbs for rebirth what is dead.
She sings songs through the chirp of the birds,
and provides food for all to be fed.

You'll see her in everything you see,
like that immature hawk perched there.
Even in this land made from man.
Look and you'll find her everywhere.

Embrace the life that lives with us,
in everything we do and see.
Every life breathing blade of grass,
the leaves of each and every tree.

Remember we animals share together,
a world that lives and breathes;
With respect for our friend Mother Nature,
and the miracles all that is living sees.

"It's Never Too Late"

it's never too late
to be - to live - to soar
to dream - to laugh - to play
to give yourself another day
it's never too late
to pick yourself up when you stumble
to be a friend to those who fall
to answer that call
it's never too late
to honor the past and lessons learned
to remember where you've been
to roll those dice again
it's never too late
to dance like nobody's watching
to chose your own song to sing
to look up into the clouds and dream
it's never to late
to remember a failure is just a step
to use those lessons to grow
to stand for something and let it show
it's never too late
to purge away the pain of the past
to start all over again
to be what you might have been
